Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

2-Fluoro-6-iodobenzonitrile (700 mg; 2.83 mmol) is dissolved in dimethylacetamide (5 mL) with guanidine carbonate (766 mg; 4.25 mmol). The vessel is purged with N2, sealed, and heated to 165° C. for 5 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture is placed in the freezer overnight. The precipitate which has formed is removed by filtration and purified by recrystallization from 50% EtOH/water. The resulting solids are filtered and dried at room temperature to yield 158 mg of 5-iodoquinazoline-2,4-diamine.
